Luna’s choice: A battle of love

Ruth's POVI lay on the ground in the pain, trying to catch my breath, my wolf was helping me heal quickly, but since we don’t shift as much as others, my healing isn’t as good as others.My heart was racing, and I felt a lump in my throat as I tried to hold back my tears. I knew I had to find a way to get out of this situation, but I didn't know how. I slowly got to my feet, holding my ribs as they ached from the kicks I'd received.I turned to face Rebecca, trying to put on a brave face. "I'm not afraid of you," I said, my voice shaking. "I won't let you control me." I could see the anger in her eyes, but I stood my ground, refusing to back down. "You're pathetic," she sneered. "You're nothing but a weak, useless omega. No one will ever want you." Those words stung, but I refused to let her see how much they hurt. "I don't need anyone's approval," I said, my voice stronger now. "I'm my own person, and I'll be fine on my own." I could see that my words had taken her by surprise.She

MICHEAL’s POVI stand on balcony of the of hall to take full view of the activities happening outside, I sighted Vincent walking out of his room, his room is adjacent the hall, I don’t why he looks so uncomfortable. I quickly walk in to hall to avoid unnecessary pleasantries, I never wanted coming for the ceremony, but as a Lycan I shouldn’t be found missing in such gathering, Shadow pack has maintained years of good relationship with their alliances. Yet, they are not the strongest or wealthiest pack but has create good records of relationship with their alliance who has helped them survive thus far. Though, Vincent parent, the Alpha and Luna of pack, are well behaved and loyal, and this has helped lead them pack with the best of their abilities.I saw Vincent siting close to a pretty lady, she looks strange I haven’t encounter her before, since my coming to shadow pack. She must be his Luna. The ceremony has fully begun and everyone is well seated and organized. They announce they w

Michael's POVI woke up at 6 am, to take a quick bath, and then prepared to meet with Vincent, as I had pressing questions for him. After completing my unfinished work on my computer, I got dressed immediately and headed to Vincent's chambers.I stormed into his chambers exactly at 7:00am, I saw him sitting on the edge of his bed while his parents were on the couch with other men sitting opposite them. As a feared king they all get to their feet at my arrival and bow.I take a chair and seat in front of Vincent as we exchange pleasantries.“I’m here to inform you guys that I've found my mate in your pack," I declared as my voice was low and calm.Vincent knit his eyebrows in interest while the other people in the room were happy for me even when I know it is a fake joy. "What are you talking about, Michael?" Vincent said with his voice tense.I sneered. "Ruth. The girl you've been keeping in the dungeon."The room fell silent, except for the sound of Vincent's parents shifting uncomf

RUTH’S POV"Stay away from my mate, Lycan!" Vincent growls, his eyes blazing with anger. Before he can take another step closer, within a second Michael appeared in his front, his eyes flashing with a warning. "You dare to threaten me?" he snarls, his voice low and threatening.I gasp as Michael grabs Vincent by the neck and slams his back against the wall. My heart races as I watch, frozen in terror, as the two powerful males face off against each other. Vincent's feet dangle in the air, his eyes bulging as he struggles to break free. But Michael's grip is unyielding, his strength felt strong as he holds him in place.Without thinking, I leap out of bed and rush to them, my hand reaching out to touch Micheal’s arm. The gesture seems to soothe him, and he slowly lowers Vincent to the ground. But the tension between them is far from dissipated. They stand there, chests heaving, eyes locked in a fierce stare-down."You're no match for me, Vincent," Michael sneers, his voice dripping wit

RUTH POVChapter 10I sat upright on my bed, and I saw Michael beside me, but at that moment, I'm in a deep trance, consumed by thoughts of worthlessness and the desire to end my life. My wolf whispers words of encouragement, reminding me that Michael loves us, but I'm hesitant to believe it. How can someone love me in just a few days? I argue with my wolf, but she persists, urging me to give Michael a chance. I reluctantly agree, deciding to tell him that I need time for the love bond to grow.Suddenly, the moon goddess appears before me. This is my first time seeing her, though people say she appears only when she has a message for you and for great powers. She looks so beautiful, she is as bright as the moon.“My child I watched all your pains and read your mind, I allowed all these to happen to you because I'm preparing for a greater journey ahead and be careful of the choices you make Ruth,” She said calmly. I'm confused, wondering what challenges she could be referring to and
